Altering
Store Bought Patterns for Plus Size Boys and Girls
Pattern companies use a "standard" set of measurements for each
pattern they make. As a result there is very little to choose from for
plus size children. In order for the growing plus size or odd size child to have an
opportunity to dress in the current fashions, alterations to the store bought
pattern are a necessity.
The
problem I've heard over and over again is "where do I start when trying to
alter commercial "store bought" patterns?"
"I thought my plus size child just had an extra large tummy, so when I
tried to alter the pattern for that, I found that the shoulders were way too
big, the sleeves too long, and the neck too big. HELP!!"
Regardless
of what size pattern you buy for the plus size child, there may be one, two,
or multiple changes that must be made. In order to get a good
fit, it is necessary to adjust the pattern dimensions to your child's figure
dimensions. The "Altering Store Bought Patterns for Plus Size Boys
and Girls" class begins with teaching you HOW to take the measurements for
the boys and girls, then how to compare each of the pattern measurements to the
child's REAL measurements, and then walks you through the process of how to do the
actual pattern adjustments.

page "Altering Store Bought Patterns for Plus Size Boys and Girls"

Never have to guess again, or use the "cross your fingers and hope it
fits" type of alteration method. Pattern alterations are not
